In the early '90s, Kenny Chesney was wide-eyed Tennessee boy in a big hat with his shirt tucked in. 1995's All I Need to Know changed that a bit thanks to the success of the track, "Fall in Love" — a twangy, pop gem that had all teh catchiness and grit you could hope for. Not hard country, but sweet country rock with more than a hint of polish amidst the grime. new album for only $9.99!

Kenny Chesney
Usher "Hush"
Despite all the bling and the flashy videos seen today, it's easy to forget that soul singers often used their voices to comment on social issues (think Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Arethra Franklin, Sam Cooke). Usher continues this tradition with his new single, "Hush." Over a subtle acoustic guitar lick and a spare drum bed, Usher wonders who will stand up for those left behind during times of war and economic uncertainty. It's a departure for Usher, one that reveals another dimension of the multiplatinum star. Listen to this single
